Something I always tell my adult kids to do… Anytime someone promises you something, especially in a job setting… Get it in writing.

of course they are gonna deny it. if they agree that it works then they would be losing money. as it stands, they make $7.95 per person for quick results. if they confirm that the trick works, then noone would need to pay. just my thoughts.

:yeah:CONGRATS to EVERYONE who has received good news.. I tested at 8am, Thursday the 28th. After 230 questions (4 hours) later, I felt devastated, exhausted and just plain being frightened, I decided to stop (on my 2 hr trip home) for lunch to try a...

Sounds promising. When did you test? I tested this morning and finally gathered the courage to do the "trick". I got the good pop-up. I am not gonna get my hopes up, though. I hope it was not too early to do it.

I just took the NCLEX-RN this morning and I am so nervous that I can't even bring myself to try the trick.

"I always felt that touring gives a chance for the nurses that already work there to give their opinions of the interviewee" (Nursing for Jesus). I agree with this statement. I worked in a clinic and we toured the applicants for that reason. Also, ...

Don't judge anything based on my slow progress. Let's just say that I hit alot of brick walls.. LOL> I have been in for 5 years and Yes, I am about to graduate. I am in College Station. Can I ask why you will be moving to Corpus if you get in?...

You should be just fine with a 3.5 So, where are you located? Dawn

You will have one skills check-off. As with any nursing program, you learn the most in the clinical setting. And you have to practice on real people to get the full effect.

Prior to your first clinical, you will travel to Corpus Christi to do a complete head to toe check off and some skills. You will practice a Foley on a Sim Man/Woman, Practice injections (into gel bags), and some other simple skills. You will do your ...

Thanks RainDreamer. Your post brought tears to my eyes.

I so, know what you mean. It is the happy moments and the little miracles that make it worth it.

And if that does not work out, there are clinical sites in the Bryan/College Station area. That is where I do my clinicals. Good Luck to you.

So far, so good. Those that I know of are employed and most had offers prior to finishing their course work.

I am sure that if you are "ultra fast" you can finish some in a month, but not all are that easy to finish quickly. They are divided up into modules and each module has lessons. Any where from 3 to ~17 lessons per module. Typically, the lessons ar...

I am not sure about clinicals in Houston, but as far as the times.....it depends on your preceptors schedule. I have done all days of the week.

I believe Blinn College in Texas offers online A&P. If you can't find what you are looking for in your state, you might try them. They are a reputable community College and their courses transfer well to the large universities. www.blinn.edu H...

I don't know if this is what you are looking for, but here is a website to obtain study materials for the HESI. http://www.hesitest.com/ Hope this helps you. Dawn

I believe Blinn College has this. www.blinn.edu Good Luck, Dawn

Thanks for sharing your story. I am sure everyone has had that sinking feeling of suddenly thinking they did something wrong. I have. And, oh the relief to realize that it was just a thought. I would have been in tears as well. I am glad that yo...

I am 42 and still working on my BSN. I have 3 teens and I know that I am NOT too old. In fact, I would bet that I have more energy than most of the 20 something year olds posting here. I think that if you truly desire to be a nurse to help others, ...

there are so many nursing students out there that are a bit older. no biggie. just think that when we are done with nursing school, not only will we have the knowledge learned in school, but we also have life experience smarts. we are gold. i a...

Congrats on your acceptance. I am in the Eline program and have been for some time. I would call myself a lifer. I often help the others in the program. Since you have been accepted, once you have access to WebCT...look me up.. You will find me u...

Just do it! There is nothing wrong with the online setting. The school that I am obtaining my online BSN degree is Texas A&M Corpus Christi and from what I am hearing, those that have graduated are passing the NCLEX with no worries. Good Luck o...

I chose an online BSN program because it allowed me to set the pace and continue working while attending. I need to keep the income. My oldest is a college student as well.
